INGREDIENTS:
Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Hydrogenated Polydecene, Synthetic Wax, Cera Microcristallina, Tridecyl Trimellitate, Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, Nylon-12, Polyethylene, Triethoxycaprylylsilane, Propylparaben, BHT (+/-) CI 77891, CI 77491, CI 77499, CI 77492

Packaging:-
The foundation comes in a stick kind of packaging. One has to twist it up to apply it. The packaging is sleek and travel-friendly.

Experience:-

MAKEUP REVOLUTION FAST BASE STICK FOUNDATION comes in 18 shades in which I picked up shade no F8 which is a little lighter shade on my Mac Nc 30-35 (as I tanned a bit).  The foundation has no brush in it (like the sugar one read here http://www.makeupandbeautty.com/2018/04/review-of-sugar-cosmetics-ace-of-face.html). One has to twist up and apply the foundation and then you can blend it with your any beauty blender, sponge or brush (as per your convenience).

The foundation has medium coverage for which if you want high coverage you need to build it. The foundation is a little thick for which a small amount is enough for entire face else one might end up looking cakey. The foundation blends effortlessly and it stays 7 hours +. The foundation tends to oxidize a bit on my skin tone. As I bought little lighter shade so thankfully it goes perfectly on my skin tone.

Now here are few down points:-

  1. Too much of this foundation can make you feel heavy on your skin.
  2. The foundation is good for dry skin people only. Oily skin people should stay away from this else you might end up looking sweaty and oily. And if oily skin people still want to try it then my suggestion is to try it in winter, not in summer.
  3. The foundation oxidizes a bit so one needs to be careful while choosing the foundation.

Overall the foundation is a "MISS" for me as I have oily skin and it doesn't suit me. The face application might make you tempted to buy it but these pictures were taken immediately after application so judge my review by my face swatch picture (lol...I am just trying to save your money).








So that's all for today. See you in my next blog post.
Till then byeeee.

Hi Everyone,

So today I am up with Sugar cosmetics ACE OF FACE FOUNDATION STICK in shade 01-latte.

Price:- Rs. 999/- for Size: 12 gm.
Availability:- Sugar cosmetics website here

Among all the  6 shades of the SUGAR Ace Of Face Foundation Stick, viz. Latte, Galão, Chococcino, Breve, Mocha, and Lungo shade I picked is 01 latte which is a light shade which is perfect for skin tone NC 30 (according to MAC foundation chart)with the warm undertone.

Little more info about Sugar cosmetics ACE OF FACE FOUNDATION STICK:-

How to Apply: Designed to be applied on the go, cut short your routine and pop this into your everyday handbag. Stripe it on your T-zone, underneath your eyes, your chin and follow up by blending it outward with the built-in brush. Apply directly from the stick onto your complexion and build coverage as needed. The luxurious brush-end is especially handy for buffing the product out and touching up uneven spots. Use it all over to even out your complexion or use it as a touch-up tool by applying a dab or two to problem areas.

The full-coverage, waterproof formula offers a totally matte finish that lasts for up to 12 hours. Weightless when applied, the handy built-in brush makes it uber-easy to blend the product in or touch-up spots.

Packaging:-

Sugar cosmetics ACE OF FACE FOUNDATION STICK comes in a stick like the packaging in which one side has the foundation stick whereas the other side has a dense blending brush. The stick foundation is thus perfect for traveling. The brush won't do much help in blending as the foundation easily melts into the skin by simply using fingers.

My Experience:-


Sugar cosmetics ACE OF FACE FOUNDATION STICK is one of my current favorite stick foundation for this summer. The foundation is creamy in texture and so it is perfect for all type of skin tones. The foundation is very easy to blend, I use my fingers only to get the flawless look effortlessly. It gives medium to high coverage (at least it covered all my blemishes, pimple mark, and scar). A little amount goes long way. It has a very light texture for which although it covers all my dark spots it feels so light on my skin that sometimes I forget that am wearing it. The foundation stays pretty 7 hours and more in this dry summer of Delhi. Although I feel a little bit oily in my t-zone area after 5/6 hours for which if I set it with a compact I am ready to go few more hours.

Overall Sugar cosmetics ACE OF FACE FOUNDATION STICK although priced a bit high but every good thing comes with a price tag and so I think it is a must have stick foundation for people who are looking for a good foundation in this summer.











That's all for today. See you in my next post.
